Vlamingi_cont's 2nd tank

[Vlamingi_cont]

can destroy yr zoas ....once my tank was infested with lots of them bcoz they hitchhike in my zoas and when i remove my zoas...they starve and disappear....

Oh god damn it... My zoas aren't opening...

[yongshun]

try doing FW dip...add a bit of Lugol solution...it helps to remove all the pests tat cant be seen with our eyes...the lugol will act as a healing agent...tats wat i usually did...

[TayHongSiang]

Oh god damn it... My zoas aren't opening...

Yr zoas must be those indon zoas...dip yr zoas in iodine.

[jasonpoh]

always do a fresh water dip for indo corals. lost of pest. less than 10 sec will kill most pests. zoas can take 20min dip no prob, but longer to recover if dip too long. sometimes got hundred of nudi and f;lat worn per dip. but then again the dip will kill inverts like worms, pods and brittle stars too.

Bro, I have bought a three dollars yellow wrasse from Ah Beng and he seem to have done the job pretty steadily (:

and I agree with the bros here about indo zoas. They are ridden with pests but a 5 minute dip with or without Lugols will remove almost 90% of them. The remaining 10% probability is left to their eggs and sort (:

In closing, don't give so easily up on zoas because of their nuds etc. They are still lovely and less maintainence required to keep them compared to SPSes.

Happy Reefing

Whr you plan getting at CF??

[MarcoVan]

Thx bro... Yellow wrasse de one that sleeps in the sand when the lights r off??

Yeah bro, that's the one (:

Where do you stay?

If you stay in the east, just get from Ah Beng. No doubt CF offers one of the best livestock around, but the time and money spent into going to CF to get 1 yellow wrasse will cost you more than what you can get from Ah Beng.

Beside yellow wrasse, my homework showed me that there are good positive results from overseas reefers that green wrasse can do the job equally well. And Irwana has some green wrasses. They are at the back to the left, furthest away relative from the clam tank, opposite 4 blue fibreglass tubs selling anemones.

Hope this helps.

Cheers (:

yongshun: good luck bro to your endeavours (:

I believe it should not be a concern as bro LemonLemon experienced and reported the same experience as I do have. My yellow wrasse left my sexy shrimp alone (:
